73 TX 750 no keys

I am a retired mechanic.
I put in a used battery.
It is connected as normal.
I discovered a few wiring problems already.
I am trying to bypass the Ignition Switch to look for spark.
 
I jumpered from B+ to red/white wire going into both coils, just near where the coils mount.

*No Spark*

I think I also need to jumper B+ into the Brown wire on harness side (coming from ign switch) because that should provide V and A to the stator and coils.

This is not a permanent magnet alternator is it?

Thanks.

UPDATE: Standard trouble shooting...tested both plug wires; marginal. Trimmed 8mm off each end, retry = nice fat white spark from left coil.
Tomorrow I will recheck the right side.
PS, All I did jumper wise is B+ to red/white near coils. According to the diagram this creates a stand alone 12v ignition system.

Sweet. Will remember that when I start playing with mine
